jdogg Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Well, it took 14 months, but the wife finally get her 2 year GC in the mail yesterday. Verified the name is spelled correctly. She is also very happy that we saved some $$s on EAD and AP. Good timing too since I am planning a trip to Seattle, now we can go to Vancover B.C. for some good chinese food. Our case was transferred to CSC during 1/07, biometrics during 2/07, heard nothing until last Tuesday when USCIS indicated they had sent the welcome letter, got the card in one week (with no notice about card production). In fact, she got both the welcome letter and the card on the same date. Before we relax and enjoy our brief USCIS-free life until we file for removal of condition, is there anything that we should be doing now to prepare for the condition removal filing? Good luck to all who are still waiting. It may take longer than what is reasonable, but it's still worth it. Link to comment

LeeFisher3 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Congratulations. A few things you can do in preparation for filing the I-751:Birth certificate(s) of child(ren) born to the marriage. Setup joint accounts, such as credit cardsCar Titles in both namesHouse title in both namesAuto insurance for both of youHave her as beneficiary for Life Insurance, Retirement AccountsHealth insurance coverage togetherItinerary's of family vacation or travel showing both names for ticketing.You got time for #1, it isn't required, but no harm in practicing. Basically you need to build up additional proof you have built a life together. There will be friends or neighbors you will want to ask to help with an affidavit concerning your marriage.
